International Transcripts
Students who completed their undergraduate or previous graduate studies at a
foreign institution are expected to provide an official transcript, and, if the
transcript is written in a language other than English, a certified
translation.
In certain cases, if the student can show that it would be
impossible to provide an official transcript from the student’s foreign
university, the GLSP may accept (1) scores from the GRE (Graduate Record Exam)
or MAT (Miller Analogies Test), (2) three letters of recommendation (written or
translated in English), and (3) a writing sample. For more information, please
contact the Assistant Director for Student and Faculty Support at 860-685-3008.
Non-native English Speakers
All GLSP students are expected to be proficient in the English language. Students
who wish to pursue a degree and whose native language is not English are expected to take either
the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) or the IELTS (International
English Language Testing System) exam and to present a writing sample. To be
eligible to matriculate, students must present a TOEFL score of at least 250 out
of 300 on the computer test or 600 out of 677 on the paper test, or a score of
at least 7 out of 9 on the academic module of the IELTS. The TOEFL or IELTS
test must have been taken within two years of the time of application for degree
candidacy, and the
score must be sent directly to the GLSP from the testing agency. The
writing sample should be an academic paper 3 – 5 pages in length.
